1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectiveTo identify risk factors associated with foetal growth restriction (FGR) and develop a predictive model to support early diagnosis and individualized clinical management strategies.

methodsA retrospective case-control study was conducted at Wusibei Campus of Fujian Maternity and Child Health Hospital, Fuzhou, China involving 490 pregnant women (196 FGR cases and 294 controls) who delivered between January and December 2024. Participants were categorized into two groups: a control group with normal foetal growth and an FGR group with confirmed FGR (This retrospective case-control study selected participants according to pregnancy outcomes and analysed clinical data retrospectively). Clinical characteristics and maternal-neonatal outcomes were compared. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed using SPSS 26.0 to determine independent risk factors for FGR. A predictive nomogram was constructed using R software (version 4.1.0) with the rms package. Model performance was evaluated

resultsThe FGR group demonstrated significantly higher incidences of foetal distress, caesarean delivery, preterm birth, and neonatal hospitalization compared to the control group (all

conclusionThe predictive model developed in this study may facilitate the early identification of high-risk pregnancies, enabling timely intervention to improve maternal and neonatal outcomes. However, external validation of this model is needed before clinical implementation.
